WHY THE RHINO PREMIUM?

Adequate ventilation is absolutely crucial to successful growing under glass. There is not another greenhouse on the market that has more ventilation than a Rhino. Better still, it's all included in the price.

Depending on the size, Rhino Premium models include a combination of single, double, and even triple size roof vents, offering a much larger ventilated area than other greenhouses. All the roof vents are controlled by Bayliss solar powered automatic roof vent openers.

The high-quality Rhino five-blade louvre vents allow you to take complete control of your ventilation, allowing cool air to enter from the side, circulate up through the greenhouse forcing air to escape through the roof vents.

Traditionally, greenhouses have been supplied with 3mm horticultural glass. It may be cheap but it isn’t safe, as it breaks easily. An improvement on this is toughened 3mm glass but this doesn’t come close to the strength and quality of our Rhino Tuff glass.

Rhino Tuff 4mm toughened safety glass is 33% thicker than most greenhouse glass and comes as standard with every Rhino greenhouse. Even the edges of the glass are rounded so that you don’t cut yourself during installation.

The unique Rhino glazing system locks each pane of glass in place along its entire length. This means that each pane becomes an integral part of the strength of the whole frame, in contrast to other greenhouses that use a glass capping simply to conceal the usual ‘W’ clip as a cosmetic improvement. The glass cannot be blown or sucked out of the frame and pushing on the glass only locks the beads more tightly into the frame.

We wouldn’t sit on the roof if a Rhino wasn’t so strong! Indeed, it’s why we named them Rhino. The Premium range builds on the already great strength of the Rhino Classic with box section glazing bars and 3mm thick 'T' section bracing throughout.

Each Rhino frame has around 60% more aluminium than similarly priced models. But it’s not just the weight, it’s the clever design of the Rhino that provides its inherent strength.

We’ve tested the snow loading capacity of a Rhino by putting half a tonne of sandbags on the roof, so she’s ready for whatever the Great British weather may throw at her.

Rhinos currently inhabit much of the UK, including windy corners from Cornwall to Scotland, and further afield in the Falklands. Customers have told us that they’ve withstood winds of 137mph – could there be a better test?

Every Rhino greenhouse includes a strong aluminium base in the price, which not only provides an incredibly strong foundation but also allows the Rhino to be erected simply onto firm, level soil – so there’s no need for an expensive concrete base. Once the Rhino is erected, strong stainless steel ground anchors are concreted into position.

The Rhino can also be erected on a hardstanding of concrete or paving slabs, in which case the stainless steel anchors are fixed using the fixings provided.

All Rhino greenhouses now include a low threshold door and ramp within the price. There’s no longer a trip hazard at the doorway and on 8, 10 and 12ft wide models there is plenty of width for a wheelchair or wheelbarrow to enter with ease.
